Method and instrumentation for performing minimally invasive hip arthroplasty

Broaching instruments divided into multiple parts to reduce the size of incisions necessary to perform a total hip arhroplasty, minimizing trauma to tissue surrounding the hip joint. One approach is to divide the broach head into first and second segments for insertion through posterior and anterior incisions, respectively, and interconnection within the patient. Methods of preparing the proximal medullary canal of a femur for receiving a hip stem implant utilize the multi-part broaching instruments and two-incision techniques to introduce the broaching instruments into the patient for broaching the canal in preparation for receiving the implant.

Patient specific implantation method for range of motion hip impingement

A method for avoiding impingement between an implanted prosthetic hip stem and acetabular cup uses at least one digital x-ray of a standing patient preferably including a lateral x-ray to determine a pelvic tilt angle of the patient. A hip stem is virtually implanted at an initial stem version angle into a virtual femur constructed from the digital x-ray. Data of at least one hip joint motion is obtained from at least one individual. A range of inclination and anteversion angles is calculated for a virtually implanted acetabular cup that avoids impingement with the virtually implanted hip stem. The calculated range of inclination or anteversion angles is based at least in part on the pelvic tilt angle of the patient, the initial hip stem version angle and the obtained joint motion data.

Multi-axis assembled anti-infective semi-pelvis false body

A multiaxial combined and matched type anti-infection semi-pelvic false body comprises an acetabulum and net cup plate wing which is arranged on the top of the acetabulum and can be fixed on a reserved hip bone wing. Two to three universal joints are arranged on the back of the net cup plate wing. The universal joints are opened with a card slot which can be connected with a universal bar. The invention can arbitrarily adjust the height and the point of view of the acetabulum through the combination of the universal joints and the acetabulum to realize the truly anatomical location reconstruction of the hip joint which is not affected by the resection range. The reconstruction of the connection of the pelvic ring and the acetabulum takes the way of universal multi-axis in order to conveniently adjust the location of the acetabulum, thereby assuring the coherence of the limb length after being reconstructed. The location of the acetabulum can be adjusted according to the removal situation of the soft tissue in the operation. Through the sacrum and the contact point of the universal screw of the ischiopubic multi-axis point driven into the pelvic ring, especially multi-nail fixation driven into the lumbar, the hardening stress can be scattered, the hardening stress concentration can be reduced to reduce the complicating disease such as looseness and broken nails.
